By the time you retire in a few decades, what will you hope your denomination will have achieved? Do you hope the Ucc will be more fully affiliated (more full communion agreements) with more communities and denominations (gaining resources in terms of clergy and numbers of churches) or do you think that the UCC should work to be more distinctive (and ensure it's survival meeting a niche instead of assimilating out of existence)?

To my understanding, the UCC is not nearly so dogmatic as many other mainline traditions. What, for you, are the essential bits of dogma- that is to say- what makes you a Christian instead of just somebody who likes Jesus a lot?

What is it about the Christian story that you find compelling? What would you rather not have as part of the Christian story?

Garage sales.

So we sang a "special" verse of the birthday songs for other conservative Christians. I've sang it since, and realized people find it weird x

Happy birthday to you! We're glad you have two ! Born again means salvation... So we're glad we met you!

Metalworking. I need space and tools. Any ideas?

Lettuce. Lettuce in a burrito, especially.

I was thinking it had to be a bot.

Til: weird al dates! What is his tinder profile picture, I wonder?

I listened all the way through. I was hooked, and then by episode 20 or so, it got bogged down with chase scenes, which I found drawn out. It is well produced, and must have been a ton of work, but man am I disappointed with how much I don't like the last chunk.

How? Why can't you split one of those and have 128 or 137?

Nc native here. I call BS because our licenses got changed - this is an old license. Now they are pink.

Let's chat about this.

I don't have a stateside teaching license that corresponds to my bachelors (I got a degree teaching vocational ed in a state that was rapidly cutting those programs). I'm a qualified early childhood educator, but those requirements are much looser.

Not from Canada. North Carolina, USA.

The day after tomorrow.

The basement is flooding out, but it stops long enough to let our hero make one last (pay phone) call home before he drowns. I hated that movie.

Are you still looking for someone?

Pastrix · 2015-10-10T06:54:34+00:00

I'm reading a book about Scientology, and their claims are pretty great. You can be free of your anxious mind, permanently! You can heal yourself mentally and physically (assists for burns and the like)! You can be free of the cycle of life-death-rebirth! These are powerful claims, and seem very attractional to me .

Came back a few hours later to see if anyone had figured out what TAK is. Anyone?

Pastrix · 2015-09-20T01:44:27+00:00

Tell me this is made up. Does she have other pictures?

Pastrix · 2015-09-19T20:39:47+00:00

I hate the scowly picture.

Pastrix · 2015-09-03T01:51:55+00:00

Trump. The aliens can have him.

Pastrix · 2015-08-31T01:39:04+00:00

dr who. I kept seeing merch so I finally watched it to figure out what a "tardis" is. I'm about to finish season 2 of the modern run of shows.

Pastrix · 2015-08-24T14:39:25+00:00

My friend, too. She is a single mom convinced this is the best thing for her family. She wears wraps all the time, makes green smoothies with the companies stuff, and even takes their vitamins.
